March

We've been busy lately. My sister came for a visit with Addison and Kourtney. They loved Connor and he loved them...except if you ask Kourney if she misses Connor she says, No... Michael. Addison was so cute with him and so nice to him...she had him cracking up. I started working a few weeks ago and I am exhausted. Seriously. I have only been on the floor 2 X because I was doing hospital orientation most days...but both times when I got home I completely passed out. Once holding Connor in the rocking chair...we both fell asleep. He has been sleeping horribly so that isn't helping. But I love it so far. I HATE leaving my baby, but I know he is o.k. with my Mom because she knows him as well as I do. I am excited to learn some more nursing skills that I can use at home with my family. It's weird because I have been out of school for so long, but I'm amazed at how fast everything is coming back. I'm only part time so after all of this training I will only have to go 2 days a week and night shifts at that! Exactly what I wanted...Michael says I just have to try it out and if I hate working I can always quit! So true..But it should work out nice.


And on a side note: I have been obsessed with these jalapeno kettle chips lately. I got hooked on the Jimmy Johns ones. It is a bad problem. I can't buy them because I like them too much! Yummy!

Connor at 7 months

I know this post is a little late, but we've been busy around here! Connor was sick all last week and he still has a runny nose but feels SO much better!

7 Months:
-Pro at sitting-never falls over
-Added momma to his sounds (dada, baba, blah, etc the usual baby sounds. haha)
-Slept through the night 1 time 2 weeks ago...I've never felt so good
-Was only getting up 2 X a night but has been getting up about 4 X a night the past 2 weeks--perfect timing because I started working so I get NO sleep at all
-Naps 2 X a day usually for 20 min and then an hour
-Throws the biggest fits...squeezes his eyes shut and screams until he gets his way
-Laughs a little more often. He started laughing hysterically and sometimes can't stop
-Plays with his toys
-Still loves the bath and jacuzzi
-Nurses 4 X a day and eats solids 3-4 X a day
-Smiles a ton (when he's not whining or crying)
-Still LOVES being outside and going for long walks
- Loves to watch you brush your teeth and loves when you let him hold the toothbrush while you are brushing.
